As the automakerís first two-plus-two coupe in the American marketplace since 1991, the A5 Coupe successfully united Audiís acclaimed design language and impressive driving performance with a generous refinement of the brandís characteristic quality and sophistication.

The Audi A5 Coupe is offered in Premium, Premium Plus and Prestige trim levels. Changes to the A5 Coupe for 2014 include the introduction of two newly available exterior colors: Cuvee Silver and Dakota Gray Ė as well as the S line exterior that now adorns all A5 Coupe Prestige models.

The S line competition package introduced late last year is still offered on Premium Plus and Prestige A5 Coupe models. This package includes sport suspension; 19-inch Segment spoke wheels with Titanium finish; Brilliant Black exterior moldings, mirror housing and door sill blades; and a black rear diffuser.

Power for the A5 Coupe is generated by a 2.0L TFSI turbocharged four-cylinder prime mover that receives a nine hp increase for 2014. Torque is communicated through a six-speed manual gearbox or an eight-speed Tiptronic automatic transmission. All-wheel drive (quattro) is standard.

The A5 Coupe rides on Audiís extremely rigid body shell construction and sophisticated chassis architecture, which provides the basis for both the carís crisp handling and bank-vault solid comfort. The smooth surfaces of the additional underbody panels enhance the coupeís already good aerodynamics. Control hardware includes aluminum running gear for a lower unsprung vehicle weight.

The front wheels are located by a five-link suspension arrangement with upper and lower wishbones. The wishbones are mounted on a subframe, which is firmly bolted to the body to provide significant rigidity.

Inside the cabin, the automakerís reputation for excellence continues, with a long list of safety features, creature comforts and advanced technology. Rear seat passengers enjoy impressive accommodations. Displays, controls and switchgear are user friendly, within reach, and easy to operate. Motorists can further customize the A5 Coupeís interior with the availability of luxury high-tech options.
